Q magnets

Starting today, Schuie and I will be making the most of what Australia has to offer when we begin our Freeride Road Trip around this great country to find the best natural terrain jumps, untouched sand dunes and ride with some of Australia's best FMX stars along the way. And not to mention, while we are riding, you can win prizes!

After 3 and a half months of playing Wii, contemplating life and watching more than my fair share of day time television Im back on the bike and riding with my mate Schuie at his home at Boonah. I probably wasnt ready to get on, but isnt it always the case a little peer pressure gets you moving.

After my doozy of a crash from the Lancelin Sand Dunes in WA, I got back home and checked into Lifestyle Therapies Physio clinic where James and Dianne lined up a treatment for my massively bruised hamstrings. The Q-Magnets that they are using in Physio's were basically a trial on me to see what I thought, and to be honest, I couldn't be more surprised.

I saw Dr Walsh, my ankle specialist last week and after some X-Rays it looks like the bone has healed quite well from surgery and he said theres no reason I shouldnt have a full recovery which is great. The entire time Ive had the injury Ive been seeing Lifestyle Therapies at Manly where Ive had physiotherapy treatments twice a week with Emma while also using the new Q-Magnets. I cant thank Lifestyle Therapies enough, their help with both the magnets and the therapy behind it has been amazing, and the proof is in my ability to walk 2 weeks after surgery, and I rode at the world famous Lommel MX track in Belgium in less than 2 months.I also have to thank Brad from GB Orthopaedics who introduced me to Dr Walsh and also the help with the OAPL Moon Boot so I could get around quicker with support for my ankle. The big surprise was when I was packing my bags for Belgium and picked up my Knee Braces that GB Orthopaedics supplied and noticed that both of them were broken. Its almost unheard of for these braces to break through stresses purely from the knee joint, so it says two things; It was a huge crash that I was in, and I also was very lucky that I didnt have two knee reconstructions from it also. So I believe thats the best testimony for a pair of knee braces Ive heard!
